NEAPOLITAN BROWNIE BOMB RECIPE BY TASTY



Neapolitan Brownie Bomb Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: brownie mix, vegetable oil, water, eggs, strawberry ice cream, vanilla ice cream, chocolate ice cream, cocoa powder

Provided by Vaughn Vreeland

Categories     Desserts

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 packages brownie mix, divided
⅔ cup vegetable oil, divided
⅔ cup water, divided
2 eggs, divided
1 ½ qt strawberry ice cream, softened
1 qt vanilla ice cream, softened
½ qt chocolate ice cream, softened
cocoa powder, for dusting

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350ºF (180ºC). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper and line a large bowl with plastic wrap.
  • In a medium bowl, mix 1 package of the brownie mix, ⅓ cup (80 ml) oil, ⅓ cup (80 ml) water, and 1 egg until just combined. Pour the mix onto a prepared baking sheet and spread with a spatula until even. Repeat with the remaining brownie mix, oil, water, and egg. Bake for 13-15 minutes, until the brownies are fudgy, yet firm. Remove from the oven and let cool.
  • Once cool, cut 1 pan of the brownies in half lengthwise, then into 8 equal rectangles. Cut 4 of those rectangles diagonally to make a total of 8 triangles and 4 rectangles. Configure the brownie pieces in the lined bowl so that they cover the sides and the bottom. Once the inside is covered, press down firmly on all the brownies, especially the seams, to create a shell. Make sure there are no openings in the outer layer.
  • Scoop the strawberry ice cream onto the brownie shell and smooth with a spatula. Cover with plastic wrap and press a medium bowl into the ice cream so that it rises up on the sides, until flush with the top of the bowl. Freeze for 3 hours, until the strawberry layer is solid.
  • Unwrap and add the vanilla ice cream. Cover with plastic wrap and press a small bowl into the ice cream so it comes up the sides and is flush with the strawberry layer. Put back in the freezer for 2 hours.
  • Meanwhile, cut a circle in the other pan of brownies the circumference of the large bowl. This will cover the ice cream layers, serving as a base when the bomb is flipped over.
  • Uncover the frozen vanilla layer and fill the well with the chocolate ice cream. Cover with the brownie circle (save brownie leftovers for later!). Press the circle into the bowl to secure it, then freeze for 1 hour.
  • Carefully remove the bomb from the freezer and flip it over onto a cutting board or serving platter. It may need to thaw a couple minutes before it dislodges from the bowl. (Running a warm towel around the bowl will also do the trick.). Once you can lift up the bowl easily, uncover the bomb and dust with cocoa powder.
  • Enjoy!

BROWNIE ICE CREAM BOMBS RECIPE BY TASTY



Brownie Ice Cream Bombs Recipe by Tasty image

This quick and easy dessert is the bomb dot com. Store-bought brownie mix meets vanilla ice cream and raspberry drizzle to form delectable frozen bites. Fill them with anything your heart desires, but we think vanilla and raspberry make a sweet power couple.

Provided by Betsy Carter

Categories     Desserts

Time 4h30m

Yield 3 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

9 oz fudge brownie mix, baked according to package instructions in a 9 x 13-inch pan
¾ cup vanilla ice cream
3 large raspberries
10.5 oz chocolate frosting, melted
1 teaspoon cornstarch
3 tablespoons water, divided
1 cup raspberries
¼ cup sugar
1 tablespoon lemon juice

Steps:

  • Make the brownie bombs: Cut 3 8-inch (20 cm) squares of plastic wrap. Place the plastic wrap in the cups of a 6-cup jumbo muffin tin, alternating between rows so you have enough space to work.
  • With a 3½-inch (8.75 cm) cookie cutter, cut 6 circles out of the pan of brownies.
  • Place a brownie circle in each prepared muffin cups. Using an ice cream scoop, scoop ¼ cup (35 g) of vanilla ice cream in the center of each brownie circle. Push a raspberry into the center of the ice cream and top with the remaining brownie circles. Wrap the plastic wrap around the brownie bomb. Place the muffin tin in the freezer and allow the brownie bombs to set for at least 4 hours, or up to overnight.
  • Make the raspberry sauce: Add the raspberries, sugar, remaining 2 tablespoons of water, and the lemon juice to a small saucepan over medium-high heat and bring to a boil.
  • In a small bowl, mix together the cornstarch and 1 tablespoon of water until the cornstarch is dissolved.
  • Once the raspberry mixture is boiling, reduce the heat to low and add the cornstarch slurry. Stir until the sauce thickens, 2-3 minutes. Remove the pot from the heat and let the sauce cool.
  • Remove the brownie bombs from the freezer. Unwrap and place, domed side up, on a wire rack set over a baking sheet. Pour the melted chocolate frosting over the bombs, then place in the refrigerator to set, about 20 minutes.
  • Remove the bombs from the refrigerator and drizzle with the raspberry sauce. Serve immediately.
  • Enjoy!

ICE CREAM BOMBE

Categories     dessert

Time 1h15m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 3

2 pints Mango Sorbet, recipe follows
1 1/2 pints good raspberry sorbet, softened
1 pint good strawberry ice cream, softened

Steps:

  • Freeze an 8-inch bowl. When it's cold, place the mango sorbet in the bowl and press it against the sides of the bowl. If you have a 6 1/2-inch bowl the same shape as the 8-inch bowl (such as from a set of nesting bowls), cover it with plastic wrap and press it into the sorbet to make the layer even. Freeze the sorbet for 30 minutes or until firm. Remove the 6 1/2-inch bowl.
  • Spread an even layer of softened raspberry sorbet on top of the mango sorbet (a 4 1/2-inch nesting bowl wrapped in plastic wrap helps with this) and freeze for another 30 minutes or until firm. Remove the 4 1/2 inch bowl.
  • Finally, spoon in enough softened strawberry ice cream to fill the bowl. Freeze until hard.
  • To unmold, dip the bowl up to the rim in warm water. Run a knife around the edge to loosen the bombe and unmold upside down onto a flat plate. You may need to run a flexible metal spatula along the edge of the bombe to release it. Freeze until ready to serve. Serve in wedges.
  • Mango Sorbet:
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 5 large ripe mangoes, peeled and seeded
  • 1/4 cup freshly squeezed orange juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • Place the sugar and 1/2 cup water in a small saucepan and cook until the sugar dissolves. Set aside.
  • Place the mangoes in a food processor fitted with the steel blade and puree. You should have about 5 cups of mango. If you want a smoother sorbet, you can process the puree through a food mill fitted with a medium blade.
  • Combine the mango, sugar syrup, orange juice, and salt and refrigerate until cold. Freeze in an ice cream machine according to the manufacturer's directions. (The sorbet will be soft.) Serve directly from the ice cream machine.
  • Yield: 1 1/2 quarts; 6 servings

ICE CREAM BOMBE



Ice Cream Bombe image

This is an Ina Garten recipe with some modifications. It is beautiful and delicious. Use what ever sorbet and ice cream combo that you like but be sure to keep the last (center) filling to some sort of ice cream. The best thing about this dessert is you can make it a few days before serving which frees you up to concentrate on the main course. If not serving the day you make it, leave it upside down and cover the bottom with plastic wrap to avoid freezer burn.
